Thanks for the hot tips, here's one for you - perhaps practice a bit of assertiveness on comment threads. I interpreted your post as being pretty pointed and rude. My connection is just fine, but Australian internet is notoriously patchy and slow. It's never been a real issue in Splatoon until the August update though.
They're really into over egging the names lately aren't they? Yarn Yoshi and Mario Maker just have that perfect, precise pop of alliteration. The extra word doesn't add much.
However! It looks amazing!! And kind of makes me wish they'd waited until now to do the big reveal for SMM, in the style of the Wizard, just to cap it all off.
The wait for Shulk, Sheik, Diddy Kong, and Samus continues...
I was lucky enough to find a Villager and Captain Falcon the other day though, and in a couple of weeks I'll be in Europe on holiday.... Wonder if I'll be able to find some there?
I don't think there's a reason for a new level cap. There's lots of new players and I think it allows people to get comfortable within the boundaries.
New levels should only become available with new equipment, and I'd be totally down with unusual or tactic-heavy weapons unlocked with higher levels. Even new skins for the old ones. Simple pleasures
Is great that everyone seems to be finding their own way of playing this! I'm still finding my ummm... tentacles, but if anyone wants to friend me, none of my mates have a Wii U, so...
M.O.N.I.T.A. - was kind of surprised she wasn't already on the roster when it was announced. Her final smash as Dark M.O.N.I.T.A. would be hilarious, as would be her monotone taunting and battle cries
Waluigi - so long overdue. Make him quick, lithe and stealthy, with special abilities to set up comedic traps not unlike Villager. His tented-finger, evilly-grinning amiibo would be a must-own
Captain Toad - imagine him cowering adorably when putting up his shield! And his pickaxe would be a great final smash. Adding a proper Captain Toad amiibo would provide an opportunity for even more add-on / DLC content - I don't feel that the Hide & Seek pixel Toad was very adequate. This could possibly be paired with Toadette
Inklings - a no brainer! Excellent attacks, visually awesome, great range of skins to choose from, amiibo already exist
Bayonetta - another strong female character, and again an excellent moveset to choose from. Her final smash would be truly formidable. Bayonetta's evil-not-evil attitude and unusual personality make her an easy favourite. Plus we need more strong ladies on the team.
Professor Layton - a well-loved character and a quirky addition. He could use any number of strange devices found in his adventures as special attacks, in addition to standard fencing moves. What if his final smash was a puzzle, timed, that dealt damage according to the speed and accuracy of solving? Definitely an opportunity here for that classic Nintendo creativity
Phoenix Wright - I bet under that suit Phoenix is totally shredded! A physical fighter able to put up a good defense (get it?), and his final smash hurling 'Objection!'s and 'Take That!'s a la Wii Fit Trainer's yoga moves would be very awesome.

Uh huh, I only got into about 25% of the matches and gave up after a couple of hours. Sorry #teamsouthpole

Re: Feature: Nintendo Franchises We Want to See at E3 - Animal Crossing
@chiefeagle02 great! I think my sisters are getting me a 3ds for my birthday this week, so this is well-timed advice!
